Passed!

I needed to learn as much microbiology as I could in 4 weeks so I could test out of this class and get back into college. This was all I studied from and passed the test. It is very informative. The pictures helped me remember the information and the way the information was explained was (adult) humorous, but not stupid. SO glad I chose this book to use.
